he cancelned the concert no artist would perform? sounds like this is Fyre Crack House edition
When I was in fourth grade, in the morning, we would sit and listen to Lee Greenwood’s “God Bless the USA” from an old tape deck in lieu reciting of the pledge. It felt more meaningful, and I suppose that’s why our teachers chose it as the daily patriotic ritual.
I like to think someone like Lee who possesses the heart of a musician that could create so much meaning in song, perhaps just can’t see past his own career, or through the thin veneer of simplistic patriotism, or that he simply can’t turn down his fans or an adoring crowd. He certainly doesn’t seem to be short on cash, and he performs at Trump events for free (which is probably why Trump likes him). And, he doesn’t seem to have the angry, bitter, and resentful spirit of Trump that has inspired modern conservative movement.
Just what the hell _is it_that people see in that man that can make them blissfully embrace what he claims to represent while somehow letting the very real horror of what he does pass right through them?
He’s dumb as rock.
The lyrics to the chorus of his signature song are “I’m proud to be an American, where at least I know I’m free.”
Not “…in America, where…”, which would make grammatical sense.
I feel like I remember watching something about him on Some More News, or Last Week Tonight and how he’s always been a bit of an asshole under it all and is always willing to make a quick buck.
It was on last week, dude is a maga chud. Even trying to break into Canada and push the far right shit there.
There it is, thanks!
